Physics-based predictive simulations of human movement have the potential to support
personalized medicine, but large computational costs and difficulties to model control …

Introduction Changing running technique or equipment can alter tibial loads. The efficacy of
interventions to modify tibial loads during running is yet to be synthesised and evaluated …

Purpose: Recent studies suggest that walking on a treadmill improves gait, mobility, and
quality of life of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Still, there is a need for largerscale …

We investigated how the human lower-limb joints modulate work and power during walking
and running on level ground. Experimental data were recorded from seven participants for a …

On a treadmill, humans switch from walking to running beyond a characteristic transition
speed. Here, we study human choice between walking and running in a more ecological …

Shultz SP, Sitler MR, Tierney RT, Hillstrom HJ, Song J. Effects of pediatric obesity on joint
kinematics and kinetics during 2 walking cadences. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether …

Two commonly proposed mechanical explanations for the walk-to-run transition (WRT)
include the prevention of muscular over-exertion (effort) and the minimization of peak …

Human bipedal locomotion is characterized by a habitual heel-strike (HS) plantigrade gait,
yet the significance of walking foot-posture is not well understood. To date, researchers have …

Background Tibialis anterior (TA) muscle is the largest dorsiflexor of the ankle joint and
plays an important role during gait movement. However, descriptions of the TA attachment …

The purpose of the present study was to describe the biomechanics of spontaneous walk-to-
run transitions (WRTs) in humans. After minimal instructions, 17 physically active subjects …
